Royal Caribbean's Monarch of the Seas 4 night cruise to Coco Cay/Nassau. Nov.2009.
Very enjoyable cruise. Great food and service in the dining room. Vast assortment, and all you can eat, in the Windjammer Cafe. Went snorkeling at Coco Cay, the ship's private island in the Bahamas. Bring your own gear or get it on the island for a small fee. Clear water. Saw lots of fish, a sunken cannon, and a plane wreck. Don't miss the on board shows, Oldies rock and roll show, magicians, comedians. All were good. Pleasant courteous staff always around to help. There is plenty of passenger oriented entertainment to get involved in, dances, Bingo, Trivia, or just relax in the piano bar or by one of the two pools. There is a casino also, which I stayed away from, but a lot people seem to enjoy. On board kids clubs will keep the kids busy if you want some alone time. Overall a very enjoyable trip.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Nassau
